The challenge

Where they started

SUCASU makes specialty coffee accessible to roasters, coffee businesses and everyday coffee lovers in Lebanon. It serves very different customers at once: roasters buying green coffee, cafés ordering wholesale, home brewers buying roasted beans and equipment, and roasters who want to rent professional machines by the hour. The platform had to handle retail and wholesale in one place and let roasters reserve machine time without endless back-and-forth messages.

Goals

  • Sell retail and wholesale in one store
  • Give trade customers their own accounts
  • Let roasters book machine time online

Our solution

What we built

We built the platform on WordPress and WooCommerce with Elementor and the Blocksy theme, customised through a child theme. The catalogue covers green and roasted coffee, bar tools, brewing gear, equipment, care products and packaging, with advanced product filters. A custom sign-up and login flow gives wholesale customers their own accounts, and the co-roasting section lets roasters reserve hourly slots on a Giesen W6A, a Diedrich E1 or a sample roaster.

  • Retail shop

    Roasted coffee, brewing gear and accessories for coffee lovers.

  • Green coffee for roasters

    Green coffee by origin with grade, score, varietal, region and altitude details.

  • Hardware & equipment

    Bar tools, brewing, care products and professional equipment.

  • Packaging

    Coffee bags and packaging for roasters and coffee businesses.

  • Advanced filters

    Filter products by category, availability and attributes to find the right coffee fast.

  • Wholesale accounts

    A dedicated sign-up and login for wholesale customers.

  • Co-roasting rental

    Hourly rental of roasting machines in a clean, shared roasting space.

  • Online reservations

    Roasters reserve their slot online instead of by phone.

  • Newsletter

    A newsletter page to keep the community updated.

    A link to the collective's Instagram community.
